Issue 7: Voters reject Hilliard school levy By GARY BUDZAK ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Hilliard City School District officials said they were disappointed after Issue 7, a 6.9-mill operating levy, was defeated in the May 3 election. The final unofficial vote was 8,181 (56 percent) against the levy to 6,223 (44 percent) in favor, according to the Franklin County Board of Elections. “We’re not going to be successful,” Superintendent Dale McVey told levy supporters and school ad-

cost homeowners an additional $211.32 a year in property taxes for each $100,000 of home value. The levy defeat means that the district will have to make nearly $4 million in cuts — including eliminating 51.5 positions and reducing 247 positions — before the next school year to balance its budget, as required by law. According to district information, Hilliard City Schools will lose $14.1 million in school funding over the next two school years, based upon

Political newcomers Nathan Painter and Joe Erb joined incumbent Al Iosue as the survivors of the May 3 Hilliard City Council Republican primary election. The final unofficial results, according to the Franklin County Board of Elections, were Painter, 1,820; Erb, 1,749; Iosue, 1,573; Bill Uttley 1,448; Cornell Robertson, 1,351. Erb, Painter and Robertson were seeking their first term on council; Iosue and Uttley were incumbents seeking reelection. Painter, 33, is an attorney and president of Nathan D. Painter, LLC. Painter has lived in Hilliard for seven years (10 in the school district), has degrees in English and an MBA from OSU, and a law degree from Capital University. He is married and the couple’s first child is due in July. “I believe that I can bring new insight and perspective to the city and help position this city to become a regional leader and a magnet for new businesses,” Painter said. “Further, I want to ensure that in these tough economic times that the level of city services we all expect is maintained and made more efficient without having to resort to tax increases.” Painter, who currently serves on the Board of Zoning Appeals, is a former magistrate for Hilliard Mayor’s Court and Franklin County assistant prosecuting attorney who worked on bringing the Hilliard Farm

Hilliard population American Legion post tops 28,000 mark Sunrise Academy backs out of deal By GARY BUDZAK ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The population of Hilliard has increased by 4,205 people in the past decade, according to the U.S. Census Bureau In 2010, the city’s population was 28,435 compared to 24,230 in 2000. “That’s less than 2 percent (of growth) a year,” Mayor Don Schonhardt said. “That seems reasonable to me. I think our policies concentrated on commercial development versus residential growth had some impact.

“Clearly, the economy and the whole housing debacle also played a role in reducing the of Don Schonhardt amount housing starts,” he said. “I think it was a combination of a lot of different factors that came into play, but I do believe the policies we established back in 2004 contributed to what I would consider a reasonable

The Sunrise Academy will not be moving into the American Legion Memorial Post 614 at 3898 Lattimer St. after all. “What happened is, we were in the process of doing a feasibility study, and it came back and said it does not meet our future goals,” said Sunrise Academy school director Leah Mohiuddin. “We really can’t expand the way we want to in that property. So that’s why we did not go through with it.” The sale of the building was never finalized, Mohiuddin said. “That was why we were waiting on the

“We were very excited about it (the building), but once we got that report back, it’s like, man, it’s not enough room for us for the future. It would accommodate us probably now, but the next year or even the following year, there’s just no way.

swim smart. Lives Lost Drowning is one of the leading causes of unintentional deaths in children under 14 years old. • Drowning can be a silent event with no warning. Non-swimmers or exhausted swimmers are unable to call for help • Children can drown in as little as one inch of water. Any amount of water that covers a child’s mouth and nose can be deadly. • Most toddler drownings occur when in the care of one or both parents and the caregiver is distracted. • Most toddlers who drown were missing from sight for five minutes or less. • Children between 1 and 4 years old are most likely to drown in hot tubs, spas or swimming pools. • Nineteen percent of drowning deaths involving children occur in public pools with certified lifeguards present.

Painter, Erb, Iosue survive council primary Continued from page A1 Market to Old Hilliard. “We must continually encourage our citizens, children, businesses, and government leaders to try new approaches and offer new solutions to problems with the humility to recognize that none of us have all the answers,” Painter said. Painter did not return calls from ThisWeek seeking comment on election night. Erb, 28, is vice president of government relations for Strategic Public Partners Group, and formerly served as the senior legislative aide to the speaker pro tempore of the Ohio House of Representatives for five years. Erb has lived in Hilliard for four years, has a degree in political science from Ohio State University, is married. His wife gave birth to their first child, a girl, last week. “It’s been a great week,” Erb said. “I’m really thrilled and humbled by all the support. I credit the victory with being able to get out there and meet people.” Of the five candidates, Erb raised and spent the most money. He said his Statehouse experience “has provided me with the ability to navigate the political waters and work well with others. I will work tirelessly to help bring jobs to our city. I am a tried and true conservative, and if elected, I will stick to my conservative values when governing our great city.” Erb said, “I would like to see Hilliard be a hub for business in Ohio. We need to bring businesses in to fill the growing number of empty store fronts and we must find ways to lower the tax burden on property owners. Attracting business and creating jobs will solve both of those issues.” Iosue credited his re-election to a last-minute e-mail he sent out urging people to vote only for him, although they were entitled to vote for up to three candidates. “If you look at the polling results, the strongest precinct that I received the most votes were 4E, which is my precinct, and 4F,” Iosue said. “So by me sending out that letter, it was very important for my neighbors and my supporters to understand the impor-

tance of casting one vote and only one vote. I received some negative response, but I explained to people if you don’t know a candidate, don’t cast a vote just to fill the ballot.” Iosue, 42, is director of planning and programs for the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio (SWACO) and has been on council since 2008 after serving on the Charter Review Commission in 2006-07. Iosue has lived in Hilliard for 15 years, has a degree in civil engineering from Ohio State, is married and has four children. Iosue, whose experience on the Charter Review interested him in running for council, said, “My proven leadership, professional experience, and strong family values make me the best candidate to hold the office of Hilliard City Council for a second term.” Iosue said he would continue the work of the current council, pointing to community improvements such as Old Hilliard, the west pool and First Responders Park.

“I want to see this vision continue to develop by working hard for the citizens of Hilliard for another four years,” Iosue said. Uttley, 55, is a real estate appraiser who has spent 12 years on council and served four years on the planning and zoning commission. Uttley, a lifelong Hilliard resident, is a Hilliard High School graduate who has a degree in business administration from OSU. He is married and has two grown children. “Hilliard is a unique community which has retained the feel of a small town while accommodating significant growth,” Uttley said. “My vision is to enhance and preserve that warm town feeling as Hilliard continues to evolve.” Uttley said he has worked closely with three administrations in Hilliard, and is concerned with how to make city government more productive with less revenue. “My extensive business management background provides a strong foundation for serving in city government,” Uttley said. “I

have over sixteen years of public service in the City of Hilliard and have worked closely with three administrations. I believe it is important to listen to our citizens and community leaders to help build consensus and work collaboratively to solve the challenges and maximize the opportunities facing our community.” Robertson, 40, Franklin County’s highway design engineer, says many of the projects he’s worked on in his 19 years have been in the Hilliard area. Robertson has lived in Hilliard for 18 years and has a degree in civil engineering from OSU. He is mar-

ried and has three children. “We have the best form of government in the world, but we have to participate, and I stand ready to serve the city of Hilliard,” Robertson said. “At the Franklin County Engineer’s Office I have learned how to communicate with residents and business owners,” Robertson said. “By listening to their issues, I have been able to understand their perspectives. During my career, I have learned the importance of working with others to brainstorm, conduct healthy debate, and arrive at the best solution for any given problem.

“I am further qualified in that I have reviewed commercial development and subdivision infrastructure around Franklin County and understand the need for balanced growth. I am a hard worker, a dedicated public employee, and a good listener.” In addition to Iosue and Uttley’s seats, a third vacancy was created after council member Tim Roberts chose not to seek re-election. Iosue was elected to city council four years ago and Uttley, who left council because of term limit restrictions, which have since been lifted, was appointed last year to fill a vacancy.

LEVY Continued from page A1 Gov. John Kasich’s draft budget. The district receives 36 percent of its funding from state and federal revenue and 60-percent in the form of local taxes. The district has made $6.5 million in cuts, including pay freezes for the 1,700 administrators, staff and teachers. The move allowed the district to wait an additional year before going back to the voters. The district has been rated as Excellent with Distinction by the State of Ohio for three years in a row, one of only 29 in more than 600 districts in the state with that rating. The levy was rejected despite the efforts of Community Partnership for Education. The chairs of that committee have said more than 1,000 people offered to volunteer or endorse the Issue 7 via email (www.forhilliardschools.com), and that fundraising from the community and businesses was easier than in other levy campaigns. Another PAC, For Hilliard Kids, was formed to oppose the levy.

Police, fire nix Nixle service By GARY BUDZAK ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Nixle is out and MailChimp is in as the email notification system for the Hilliard police and Norwich Township fire departments. “Nixle came out a couple of years ago, and they were advertised as an easy, free way to communicate, and it was,” said HPD spokeswoman Hyda Slone. “My understanding is, because they’re accountable to stockholders, and they’re losing so much money, that now they have to charge,” Slone said. “Well, the amount for the first year with a discounted rate was over $1,700, and the second year would be $3,000. That’s just really high.” Slone said she learned at a recent conference that agencies in Dublin and the MidOhio Regional Planning Commission used MailChimp, and they said it was easy and cheap.

Officers might wonder about the MailChimp name, but their prices are nothing to laugh at. According to Slone, it’s free until there are more than 2,000 subscribers. Then the price will be $30 to $50 per month. After sending out advisories to the 1,500 local subscribers of Nixle a few weeks ago that the HPD was switching systems, 712 people have signed up for MailChimp, providing only their email address. Slone said MailChimp subscribers will get one to three HPD advisories per month, unless there’s a catastrophe. Police Chief Doug Francis didn’t want to send more than that, because people might junk the emails. However, he did want at least one monthly advisory so people knew the service was working. The first MailChimp advisory warned residents about springtime home improvement scammers, advising them to check with the Better Business Bureau before spending their

money. “Remember that within the city of Hilliard all door-to-door salespeople must have a permit and I.D. badge issued by the city of Hilliard to solicit your business or offer free estimates,” the advisory said. “If you see any suspicious people in your area feel free to contact our agency at 614-876-7321.” Other advisories might deal with missing persons, thefts from cars, and road closures. Norwich Township Fire Chief Dave Long said they’ll share the account with the HPD. “We don’t use it enough to make it worthwhile,” Long said. “That’s the simplest way. It’s a shame that Nixle didn’t stick with what they promised when they started into the program, but business is business, I guess. We’ll move forward.” To sign up for MailChimp, visit http://hilliardohio.gov/police/alertsandnews.aspx. gbudzak@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Letter

Goodwill agencies to celebrate anniversary To the editor: Goodwill Columbus this week is among more than 165 independent Goodwill agencies across the United States and Canada observing the 60th anniversary of Goodwill Industries Week. Locally, this commemoration also allows us to thank you — our shoppers and donors, and business and government partners — for the important role you play in Goodwill’s day-to-day operations. By donating gently used clothing, furniture and household items to Goodwill, you help others. Each year, Goodwill Columbus provides 1.2 million hours of service to 3,325 participants with disabilities and other barriers through day habilitation programs, community-based supported living services, employment training and job placement services. Additionally, your donations to Goodwill divert usable goods from landfills. In 2010, Goodwill Columbus received revenues of $4.4 million from

the resale of donated goods. Your dollars helped to fund more than 15 programs and services for individuals with disabilities and other barriers. Donated items we are unable to sell in our retail stores are spared from landfills as well. In 2011, Goodwill Columbus expects to recycle more than 1 million pounds of unwanted materials — metal, plastics, and wood, wicker and miscellaneous wares. During Goodwill Industries Week, I just wanted to say “thank you” to the people of Franklin County this year for helping Goodwill continue to “break barriers and build futures” for so many local individuals with disabilities. For more information on the impact of your donations to Goodwill Columbus, please visit www.goodwillcolumbus.org and www.donate.goodwill.org. Margie Pizzuti president, CEO of Goodwill Columbus

As it were

The city itself is the single monument to Joel Wright He is one of the more elusive men in the story of Columbus. Joel Wright is also one of the more important ones. Because of Wright, the whole downtown of Columbus is where it is, is named as it is and is laid out on lines that are still followed today. There is no picture, no portrait, no sketch of this remarkable man. Wright was a member of the Society of Friends, called Quakers, and most Quakers shunned pictures as a waste of time and effort. Because of the memories of his friends and acquaintances, we know a little bit about him. He was tall and strong and generally quite fit. He wore the long plain coat of the Quakers, with its large pockets with flaps folded over. He sported knee-length stockings and plain leather shoes. Both the buckles at his knees and on his shoes were made of silver and were a modest display of the success he had made of himself in Ohio. Born in 1750, Wright had missed most of the American Revolution and became known as a man who provided his own passage. Wright was a surveyor and by definition one of the few literate and well-read men in an often illiterate frontier society. In the years after the American Revolution, he spent most of his time surveying the upper reaches of the Scioto, Muskingum and Miami rivers. He also was a town planner and helped lay out Dayton, Ohio, and Louisville, Kentucky, among other places. After the death of his wife, Wright decided to follow his grown children into the Ohio country and eventually came to call the area around Waynesville his home. In spring 1812, he was called from southwest Ohio to do once more what he did best. Ohio in 1812 was a state in search of itself. Established in 1803, Ohio was the first state carved out of the Northwest Territory that had become a section of British America in 1763 and part of the newly established United States in 1783. A nation mired in debt and with little income used this vast expanse of land to pay its soldiers’ pastdue wages. It sold the remaining land to anyone who wanted to buy. Because Ohio was closer to the east, it became the site of immense land grants to people from north and south, as well as people burned out by the British and even a colony of expatriate French settlers. The land immediately across

the Scioto from frontier Franklinton was called the “High Banks opposite Franklinton at the Forks of ED the Scioto known as LENTZ Wolf’s Ridge.” Most of the land, from Fifth Avenue on the north to Refugee Road on the south, was set aside for residents of Nova Scotia who had lost property because they had favored the American cause. Desperate for support, many of these people sold their land warrants to speculators and never came to Ohio. Some of the few who did settled near Broad Street and named their home after the place they left: Truro Township in Nova Scotia. By 1812, much of the land on that high ridge opposite Franklinton was empty. As such it became a place to examine as Ohio began looking for a new state capital. The first capital was at Chillicothe, a town along the Scioto River. Unlike the river towns of Marietta and Cincinnati, Chillicothe was a small frontier village and representative of the common people who were settling the new land. It also was directly below Adena, the hilltop estate of Ohio founder Thomas Worthington. Responding to requests for a more northern location, the capital city had been located briefly in Zanesville before being moved back to Chillicothe. In February 1812, after looking at many sites, the Ohio General Assembly chose the High Banks opposite Franklin-

ton as its new home. Joel Wright came from southwest Ohio to carve that new capital city from the wilderness. Working with local surveyor Joseph Vance, Wright laid out the town of Columbus in April 1812. He picked the site of Statehouse Square and a 10-acre site for a penitentiary, where the Cultural Arts Center is today. He filed a report with the general assembly, listing all of his expenses, including the $2.43 for his journey to central Ohio. Wright’s expenses included the cost of paper and other supplies and his room and board. All of his expenses, including his trip home, came to $17.62. It is fair to say in retrospect that Ohio got its money’s worth. By June 1812, the first sale of lots occurred. James Kilbourne of Worthington paid $1,000 for a corner lot at Broad and High. Other nearby lots went for several hundred dollars each. Sales abruptly slowed when it was later learned that America had gone to war with Britain on the same day, June 18, that the sale had been held. Wright returned to Columbus in 1813 to oversee the construction of the penitentiary. When it was under way, he resigned his position as “director of Columbus.” He went home and lived in the Quaker community of Springboro until his death in 1829. There is no statue of Joel Wright in Columbus, and Wright would have been appalled if one had been erected. The city was his monument and a source of pride to him.

Norwich trustees table Schirtzinger Road decision By GARY BUDZAK ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Norwich Township trustees on May 2 tabled a vote on the Schirtzinger Road improvement project until May 16. The meeting room of the Safety Services building was filled with Schirtzinger Road residents Monday. They asked the trustees to postpone their vote so everyone could see the latest changes to the project. Among the concerns cited by residents were the removal of too many trees, drainage and Holcomb Ditch, the permanence of the road resurfacing, adding stop signs to slow traffic along the road, and the lack of time given them to comment. Some did not like that the vote was to be taken at a noon meeting instead of in the evening. The township’s regular meetings are scheduled at noon the first Monday of the month and 6:30 p.m. the third Monday. “I don’t think we would all necessarily agree that removing all the trees and repaving it (is) going to be the best solution,” said Michael Marsh, who held a meeting with Schirtzinger Road residents April 28 at his Dublin Road home. “We’d love to hear alternatives.” “You people all have opinions,” trustee Mike Cope said. “It’s pretty hard sometimes to stand up and say no to you, so I understand why people in the past have not taken on the issue.”

Cope said uniform 12-inch drainage pipe with restrictors will be placed along Schirtzinger so the ditch can be monitored and water will not pool up in the yards. Some trees would have to be removed, and the trustees offered to replace them. Trustees Chuck Buck and Larry Earman said they were ready to vote on the project now, but would be willing to wait until May 16. “It’s highly unlikely that I would vote for anything but what’s lying on that table in front of me now,” Cope said, referring to drawings of the planned improvements, which will be on view at the Safety Services Building. Cornell Robertson of the Franklin County Engineer’s Office said that if the Schirtzinger Road project is approved by the trustees at the May 16 meeting, the improvements could still be completed this year. Also at the meeting: • Fire Chief David Long received approval to buy a new ambulance and other equipment not to exceed $219,000. • The township accepted ownership at no cost to them of a half-acre in front of the Safety Service Building vacated by the city of Hilliard. Attorney Don Brosius discussed an annexation/taxation issue related to the Hayden’s Reserve development on Hayden Run Road, which he said is being taxed by both the township and the city of Columbus.

Hilliard population tops 28,000 mark Continued from page A1 growth rate over a ten-year period.” According to the census, there are 10,637 total housing units in Hilliard. Of those, 439, or 4.1-percent, are vacant. “Although our balanced-growth policies and the national recession have slowed residential development significantly, Hilliard continues to be a destination for people seeking a higher quality of life,” said Brett Sciotto, city council president. Of the 28,435 people living in Hilliard, 19,874 are age 18 or older. Brett Sciotto “I’m not surprised that more and more people want to live in the Hilliard City School District,” said superintendent Dale McVey. “Great schools lead to great communities and Hilliard schools are excellent. We provide great value to our community and appreciate their support.” By race, 25,177 people were white, or 88.5percent; with 17,900 over 18 years old, or Dale McVey 90.1-percent. There were 1,595 Asians; 840 Black or African-American; 544 who said they were two or more races; 43 American Indian and Alaska Native; eight Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander; and 228 who said they were some other race. Because the population growth of Hilliard was less than 20 percent from the previous decennial census, a fifth political ward doesn’t need to be created. The existing four wards will be re-divided this summer.

SUNRISE ACADEMY Continued from page A1 the legion post’s size of 9,620 square feet might be a good fit. “I really like that building. I was really looking forward to it,” Mohiuddin said. “We were very excited about it, but once we got that report back, it’s like, man, it’s not enough room for us for the future. It would accommodate us probably now, but the next year or even the following year, there’s just no way.” Sunrise Academy is looking at a pair of other locations within Hilliard, she said. Legion members voted in

favor of the sale to Sunrise Academy and had planned to leave the building at the end of May. Now, Post 614 is staying put in Old Hilliard. “We’re still in the building,” said post commander Bill Ihrig. “We’re still continuing all our activities. We never put a sign up saying we’re in contract or anything, so we’re still actively pursuing the building sale.” The Lattimer street building is too big and too expensive for the Legion to stay in, Ihrig said. When it is sold, he said, Post 614 will move to another location in Hilliard.

Annual Family Summit INTERESTED IN WEARING to focus on cyberbulling MULTIFOCAL CONTACT By GARY BUDZAK

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

New technology has brought with it a new way to threaten and torment people called cyberbullying. To combat it, the Hilliard Youth & Family Commission’s (HYFC) annual Family Summit on Thursday, May 5, will feature Dr. Joel Haber, author of the book, “Bullyproof Your Child for Life.” He will speak about physical bullying, verbal bullying, relational bullying and cyberbullying. “Cyberbullying has made it so much easier for kids to anonymously do mean things,” Haber said in a recent phone interview from New York. “Cyberbullying allows kids to say or do mean things or show a video that goes out there to not just one kid but potentially millions. That’s a real problem, and we’re seeing more of these horrible cases popping up all the time.” Although high-tech harassment is on the rise, Haber said, he didn’t think the other forms of bullying were worse now.

A closer look The annual Family Summit will be held from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, May 5, in the Makoy Center, 5462 Center St. Admission is free. For more information, call 614-334-9622 or visit www.hyfc.info.

“It’s probably not so much greater than it used to be,” Haber said. “It’s just that it wasn’t talked about before. People used to consider it a rite of passage. It was just something kids had to go through. When you ask people to talk about their own bully stories, and you ask an audience, so many people have had these horrible experiences that they can remember in detail 20, 30, 40 years ago.” Haber said that when he speaks in Hilliard, he’ll explain what to look for in terms of bullying and what parents, schools and the community can do to help. One response, fighting back, isn’t the right approach, he said.

“The better approaches really have to do with kids learning skills to use words, other tactics to figure out ways to deal with issues before they get worse and to involve people who have power to help out in this.” HYFC president Greg Cottrill said the summit is the organization’s largest adult event, and each year a different topic is selected that affects teens. “I think that bullying is an increasing phenomenon,” Cottrill said. “It is also becoming more prevalent because of Facebook and texting. Cyberbullying can be just as bad as the verbal or the physical bullying. It has become more prevalent. Educating the parents on how to deal with the parents of the bully, and how to deal with the school system if this is occurring to your child, are two angles we’ll spend time talking about.” The event will be held from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, May 5, in the Makoy Center, 5462 Center St. Admission is free. For information, call (614) 334-9622 or visit www.hyfc.info. For information on Haber, visit respectu.com.

Cuco’s Taqueria serves up unbeatable values Because today is Cinco de Mayo, why not beat the burrito-buzzsawing crowds by igniting your fiesta well before noon? I’m not talking about drinking all day long (though I’m not ruling it out, either), I’m suggesting you jump-start your morning with a zesty and stunningly cheap Mexican breakfast at Cuco’s. Most people know Cuco’s as one of the best full-service Mexican restaurants

Chilaquiles at Cuco's Taqueria.

MENU by G.A. Benton

in Columbus, and it is certainly that. But the family- and party-friendly Cuco’s serves up some unbeatable first-meal values, too. I’ll admit at first it felt a bit odd settling into a roomy booth in the modest and amusingly Mexi-kitschy Cuco’s at 9 a.m. I’m so used to digging into their fresh chips and salsa and heck-yeah margaritas (the Original, on the rocks and with half the sugar is my local benchmark) By Jodi Miller/ThisWeek that lurking over eggs and diner-style coffee

(sometimes flavored with cinnamon) almost seemed surreal. So I ordered a Vampiro cocktail to get my mind right. Made with tequila, grapefruit soda and the bracing tequila chaser called sangrita, it tastes entertainingly citrusy, spicy, sweet and tart. Anyway, sucking on that Vampiro proved to be an inspired idea. So did ordering the smorgasbord-like El Tapatio platter ($6.25). Kinda like breakfast, lunch and dinner all on a single huge plate, it’s a phenomenal deal. I got three eggs over greasy; a generous mound of addictive Mexican hash (crispy fried potato cubes blended with lots of properly fat-rendered and zingy chorizo); two terrific barbacoa tacos fashioned with soft corn tortillas wrapped around spicy, juicy and super-tender beef; and rich refried beans laced with melted cheese. Equally giddy-making in variety and size and likewise providing killer value is the hog-out ensemble called Nuevo

Cuco’s Taqueria 2162 Henderson Road, Upper Arlington 614-538-8701 cucostaqueria.com

after the eggs in the previous dish (well, plus rice and beans — don’t think you’re getting off that easy here) by ordering the good Huevos Rancheros ($5.25). In general, Chilaquiles ($5) is a clever Mexican leftovers meal made by stewing yesterday’s tortillas with condiments and other flavor enhancers. At Cuco’s, this translated into a piquant, cooked salsa verde playing off of a fresh tomato pico de gallo plus three eggs (of course), cheese and sides of those irresistible breakfast potatoes and refried beans. For something a little more unusual, but still nice, try the Oaxaqeña ($6.75). This was three ample enchiladas crammed with scrambled eggs and spuds wholly slathered in a stout black bean sauce. Like all of the breakfasts at Cuco’s, it’s an incredibly generous serving of food and flavor for a mere pittance of pesos.

Amaneser ($7). The roll call on that one went like this: • Three fried eggs (because three’s better than two, right?) enticingly simmered in a zippy ranchero sauce then winningly plopped atop fried corn tortillas • Soupy, full-flavored black beans • What the menu calls bacon or sausage but happily turned out to be more of that well-done chorizo • Two big and very nice pancakes (dessert’s too often neglected in the morning, don’t you think?) that were light, had attractively crisp exteriors, were pleasantly flavored with vanilla and sprinkled with powdered sugar. Yeah, that’s a lot of food. For a more Check out the new Columbus-area dinmodest repast, you could just call it quits ing guide at www.ColumbusCrave.com

Chefs to converge on Audubon Center for fourth Taste event

By Lorrie Cecil/ThisWeek

Kevin Caskey, owner and chef of Skillet, puts raspberries on the raspberry panna cotta with lemon and rhubarb verbena. It is one of the dishes he is making for the Taste of Dine Originals event

Kevin Caskey can’t wait to show off his chops next week at the fourth annual Taste of Dine Originals. The chef and owner of Skillet in Schumacher Place will serve raspberry panna cotta with rhubarb and lemon verbena, along with some other creations. Caskey is among 50 chefs participating in the fourth annual event, to be held May 12 at the Grange Insurance Audubon Center, 505 W. Whittier St. He said he hasn’t participated for two years and is eager to get back.“It’s good exposure for our group as a whole,” he said. “We’re all independently owned restaurants, and we’re a diverse group. And in one night you can taste not only the food offerings but understand the concept and thoughts that went into the development of the restaurants that make up our group.” The gala will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. Tickets are $100 and can be purchased at www.dineoriginalscolumbus.com. Some tickets might be available on the day of the event and may be purchased at the door. Proceeds benefit Dine Originals Columbus and the Buckeye Ranch, which provides mental-health treatment and alcohol and drug services for children with behavioral or psychological and substance-abuse disorders. “We’re blessed to be part of the event for four years,” said Michelle Aro, development coordinator at the Buckeye Ranch. “The partnership we’ve built with the Columbus Dine Originals group has been fantastic. They’ve been a wonderful group to work with.”

The event has been moved from the Smith Bros’Hardware Co. building downtown because it simply outgrew the space, said Katharine Moore, executive director of the local chapter of Dine Originals. The Audubon Center, on the Whittier Peninsula, provides a modern backdrop with attractive surroundings, she said. “We thought it really complemented our messaging and mission because they are green and our members have that commonality,” Moore said. “It’s such a beautiful oasis in downtown Columbus that people don’t know about. So it’s fun for us to introduce that venue to a whole new crowd. In addition to food, more than 30 vineyards will be represented, as well as local breweries and micro distilleries. One of those is Watershed Distillery, just outside Grandview Heights. “We are excited to be a part of it,” Greg Lehman, co-founder of the company, said of the celebration. “I think it’s a good way for us to be involved locally.” Moore said chefs look forward to showing off their talents and mixing with the crowd. “They have fun riffing off each other,” she said. “They’re very competitive on what they put out. But they’re there to talk to their customers in a way that they just don’t have the opportunity to on a busy Saturday night.”

Cordell aiming to regain state title For an athlete who didn’t like running when she started competitively at age 9, Taneisha Cordell has developed into an elite competitor. The New Albany High School senior, who will run track at the University of Miami (Fla.) beginning next year, has the fastest area time to this point in the season in both the 400 LARRY meters and her specialty, LARSON the 800. She had the fourth-fastest time in the country in the 800 in the winter indoor season and, after finishing fourth in the Division I state meet as a freshman, she won the 800 as a sophomore at Reynoldsburg before transferring to New Albany. Cordell also won the 800 at the USA Track & Field national meet last summer in Sacramento, Calif. Talk about credentials. “My mom got me into running when I was in elementary school and I really wasn’t very good and I was a basketball girl so I wasn’t even really interested,” Cordell said. “Through lots of hard work and dedication and lots of support from my teammates, my family and my coaches, Denny Hammond at Reynoldsburg and Otis Winston here at New Albany, I have been fortunate to be successful. Like lots of athletes, I owe so much to so many people and right now I owe so much to coach Winston. He has definitely been a major factor in my life and we have a great relationship.” Even though Cordell has been sensational this spring in the 400, her specialty still is the 800. She loves the challenge of that event. “The 800 isn’t too short and it isn’t too long,” Cordell said. “I look at that race as a measuring stick for toughness. Anyone can sprint, but in the 800 it becomes which runner is the gutsiest in the last part of the race and who can finish at the fastest pace. “Like most young runners, I started as a sprinter at Reynoldsburg Junior High, but at the end of my seventh-grade year I began running the 800 and have never stopped. When I finished fourth in the state as a freshman it boosted my confidence, and winning the event the next year was the most exciting sports moment of my life because I was part of a state championship team at Reynoldsburg and it was the end of an amazing season. “Last year was a major disappointment at the state championship meet. I had illnesses with a sinus infection last spring and my confidence was down when I ran in the 800 final. Then I fell with about 150 yards left in the race and didn’t finish, which makes me more determined than ever to get my title back this year. I think about it all the time.” See LARSON, page C3

Darby’s Korinne Culley tries to maneuver past Westerville Central’s Karlene Harrison on April 5. Culley has become the focus of opposing defenses this season. The senior midfielder had scored 52 goals through nine games, for an average of 5.8 per game.

Lacrosse

Darby’s Culley ripping defenses By SCOTT HENNEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers Korinne Culley is the focal point of opposing defenses each time the Hilliard Darby High School girls lacrosse team takes the field. The senior midfielder had 52 goals through nine games for an average of 5.8 per contest. She scored 61 times last season, forcing opponents to bring doubleand triple-teams to try to defend her. “Sometimes it’s frustrating when (opponents) are guarding you and holding, but I try to look at it as a positive,” said Culley, who had four goals in a 10-6 loss to Columbus School for Girls on April 28. “When they are double- or triple-teaming me, that means some of my teammates are open, so I can get the ball to them.” Darby coach Johnny Ulry said Culley

uses many natural abilities on the field. “Korinne is everything you would want in a player. She’s extremely fast and she knows how to shoot and score,” Ulry said. “Coaches can’t teach players how to put the ball in the back of the net. She has a lot of confidence and natural skill.” Finding the back of the net has never been a problem for Culley, but finding a college was another story. She has a gradepoint average above 4.0 and hopes to major in biomedical sciences as she looks toward medical school. That was one of the reasons she selected Grand Valley State, a Division II school in Allendale, Mich. “At Grand Valley, I really liked the campus and found out they had good honors classes, so I could get that as well and play lacrosse,” said Culley, who also considered Limestone in Gaffney, S.C., Gan-

non (Pa.) and Bucknell in Lewisburg, Pa. “I think it will be cool to be on a program when it starts everything off.” The Lakers began play in women’s lacrosse this spring. Culley had never played the game before her freshman season. “When I was a freshman, it was my first time picking up a stick,” she said. “In middle school I ran track and wasn’t sure if I wanted to do that in high school. I had some friends who talked me into coming out for lacrosse and I loved it from the start. It really changed things for me now because it’s my favorite sport.” Confidence has been the key in Culley becoming a standout player. “You have to be athletic and confident in your skills,” she said. “When I started, I was way behind in my stick-handling skills. But the thing that helped me be suc-

cessful was confidence. I have played soccer, basketball and track and you use all of those skills in lacrosse. If you are confident in your skills, you can be really good at the high school level.” Culley continually worked on her stick skills. “When I first started, I would cradle the ball (in the net of the stick) when I was walking to and from school. That helped me a lot,” she said. “I’m still not up to everyone else as far as stick skills because a lot of them have been playing since they were really young, so that puts me several years behind. But I played Midwest Sports Lacrosse in the summer and that helped. Playing against the best players in the state was great for my stick skills.” See LACROSSE, page C3

Boys Volleyball

Panthers have strong showing in Centerville By SCOTT GERFEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

By Mike Munden/ThisWeek

Bradley’s Ian Davis (right) spikes the ball past Gahanna’s Jonathon Harrison on April 28. The Jaguars are fifth in the Division II state poll and seventh in the East Region.

Every year, many of the top high school boys volleyball teams gather in Centerville for a weekend that essentially amounts to a state tournament preview. For Hilliard Darby, the top team in the East Region poll, it provided affirmation that the Panthers could compete with the South Region’s best programs that traditionally have ruled the state tournament. Darby entered the season with only one returning starter from last season, when it reached a state semifinal before losing to eventual champion Cincinnati Elder 25-20, 20-25, 25-20, 25-17. The Panthers placed fifth in the Centerville

Elite tournament on April 30 with a 25-17, 2225, 25-18, 25-20 victory over Lakewood St. Edward, which is ranked eighth in the Division I state poll. “We’ve definitely gained some confidence,” said coach Bryan Webb, whose team was 15-3 overall before facing Hilliard Davidson on May 3. “I don’t know that some of our guys thought we could compete with those teams, but I think now they do.” Also in the Centerville tournament, Darby defeated Elder 25-18, 18-25, 27-25, 15-25, 1512 and was competitive against Cincinnati Moeller — ranked first in the state poll — in a 25-18, 25-23, 28-26 loss. Darby and Elder are tied for fifth in the state See VOLLEY, page C4

Baseball

Davidson seeded sixth despite recent slide By SCOTT HENNEN

At a glance

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Hilliard Davidson High School baseball team will enter the Division I district tournament as the sixth seed, but coach Jim Dougherty said the Wildcats will need more consistent play to live up to that billing. The Wildcats were 12-8 overall before playing Darby on May 4, but they had lost six of their past eight games. “This was a tough week for us,” said Dougherty, whose team won 10 of its first 12 games. “We lost to Gahanna twice (4-3 and 12-0 in five innings on April 30) and in both games we didn’t cover first base on plays that should have been outs that opened up big innings for them. We have to play better defense than that.” The Wildcats were second in the OCCCentral Division at 8-3 before playing Darby. Dublin Coffman, the district’s second seed, led the league at 10-1. Worthington Kilbourne was third at 7-3. “We knew it would be a tough situation (going into the latter part of the schedule) because of the teams we played,” Dougherty said. “We have been pitching well, but have forgotten the other portions of the game.” Davidson has a first-round tournament bye before playing Wednesday, May 11, at home against Dublin Jerome or Briggs. The Celtics did not play Davidson

The winner plays Grove City, Franklin Heights, Thomas or Northland in a district semifinal May 16 at Grove City. Last year, Darby lost to New Albany 3-1 in the opening round of the district tournament. •Bradley was seeded ninth and selected a first-round bye in the Division II district tournament. The Jaguars will open Tuesday, May 12, at home against Centennial or Whitehall in the second round. The winner will face top-seeded Olentangy, London or Eastmoor Academy in a district semifinal on May 17 at Darby. “I was happy with getting the ninth seed,” said coach Matt Gilkerson, whose team was 9-11 overall and 5-5 in the OCC-Capital Division before playing Delaware on May 3. “But we have been a little inconsistent. “In the last couple of games, we have made a few errors and did not have good at-bats, but our pitching has been solid as expected,” Gilkerson said. “We need to get hits in key situations.” Last season, Bradley was seeded seventh in the district tournament. After a first-round bye, the Jaguars beat Bexley 3-1 before losing to top-seeded Jonathan Alder 12-2 in six innings in a district semifinal. The Pioneers went on to win the state title.

Below are the recent results and coming schedules for the Bradley, Darby and Davidson baseball team: BRADLEY *April 21 — Lost to Mount Vernon 2-1 in eight innings April 22 — Game at Centennial postponed April 23 — Defeated Bexley 11-10 and Northridge 15-5 in five innings *April 27 — Def.

Celtics win Worthington Cup; Wildcats finish eighth By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers

At a glance

The champions of the Worthington Cup tennis tournament usually are the players who are strongest in all facets of their games that particular day. For Dublin Jerome High School’s Sean Stein, who won the doubles title with teammate Kent Seitz, that meant his kick serve was on target in the final on April 30 at Worthington Kilbourne. For Thomas Worthington’s Casey Cempre, who won the singles title, that meant the rediscovery of his backhand. “I’ve been really getting my kick serve in,” Stein said. “I’ve been working on that serve for the last 10 years and it’s probably the best part of my game. I can always rely on my serve.” Stein and Seitz used strong serving to defeat Gahanna’s Canyon Teague and Jesse Shivener 6-4, 6-3 to capture the doubles championship. Their title, coupled with Jerome’s Frank Kuo placing third in singles with an 8-1 win over Olentangy Liberty’s Vick Chhabria, gave the Celtics their first Worthington Cup championship. Jerome scored 15 points to finish ahead of Thomas (12), Liberty (11), Upper Arlington (11), Gahanna (8), St. Charles (7), Kilbourne (6) and Hilliard Davidson (4). Seitz and Stein hope to follow the path of UA’s Stu Little and Billy Weldon, who won the Worthington Cup last year and went on to win Division I sectional, district and state titles. The past two years, three of the top four finishers in the Division I state doubles tournament played in the Worthington Cup. “This means a lot,” Stein said. “People were talking about whomever wins this tournament usually goes on to win state.” “It’s just good preparation all around,” Seitz said. “We know we can beat a lot of teams. We’ve gotten our confidence back.” To win the Worthington Cup title, Seitz and Stein had to hold

off Teague and Shivener, who defeated UA’s Weldon and Eric Vannatta 10-6 in the first round. “It’s definitely a big step. We’ve never been invited to the Worthington Cup in my four

years,” Shivener said. “For us to come in and place second in the event definitely makes a statement.” “I just think we came ready to play,” Teague said. “It’s my

first time here and my first time playing with Jesse, and beating UA was pretty big for us. We just had fun and everything went well.” Also in doubles, Liberty’s

Mitchell Lothes and Alexander Hathaway defeated St. Charles’ Grant Dolven and Weston Niermeyer 9-7 to place third. Weldon and Vannatta defeated Thomas’ Mark Evans and Harrison Chang 8-5 to place fifth, and Kilbourne’s Sam Lazaroff and Roger Juang defeated Davidson’s Zach Page and Greg Tiffan 8-0 to place seventh. Cempre maintained Worthington’s four-year tradition of winning the singles title in the event, as he defeated Little 4-6, 6-4, 10-6 in the final. Cempre said he had struggled with his backhand the week leading up to the event, particularly in a 6-1, 6-2 loss to Weldon during the Cardinals’ 4-1 loss to the Golden Bears on April 27. “The biggest thing was I could make my backhand,” Cempre said. “Usually my backhand is a pretty good, but the last week I have struggled with keeping my backhand in court. I think

just because it’s the Worthington Cup, I played better.” Considering how well he and Weldon played together last year, Little was sort of a surprise entrant in singles. However, Little and Weldon plan on playing doubles in the postseason. Little said the Worthington Cup was a good tuneup for the OCC-Central Division tournament on Saturday, May 7, at Davidson and the postseason. “OCCs are big,” Little said. “We have a great tradition of winning the league and a lot of the top teams in our conference were here. It’s good to get a feel on how everyone is playing.” Also in singles, Kilbourne’s Brian Aguirre defeated Davidson’s Spencer Walter 9-7 for fifth and St. Charles’ Dennis Gleason defeated Gahanna’s Stephen Cheng 8-1 for seventh. pbatterson@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Equestrian

Area riders come up roses in national finals By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Autumn Rose Equestrian middle school team continued its tradition of success in the Interscholastic Equestrian Association national finals. The team, which trains at Autumn Rose Farm in Plain City, outscored runner-up Hammond School 20-19 and was named national champion at the event, which was held April 28May 1 in Upper Marlboro, Md. Hammond School was named reserve champion. Autumn Rose owner and coach Debbie Griffith said she doesn’t take her team’s success for granted even though it has captured the national champion title in two consecutive years and four times in the past seven years. “We’ve had a lot of success in the seven years we’ve competed here, but every one of the 12 teams that compete in the national finals have to be really good to make it this far, so we

never count on winning this championship,” Griffith said. “We have a lot of dedication on our middle school and high school teams and it’s paid off for us in the national finals.” Placing first for Autumn Rose in the team competition were Dublin Karrer Middle School seventh-graders Caroline Gute in future intermediate reining and Karey Ulstad in future novice horsemanship. Rounding out the scoring in the team competition were Dublin Grizzell sixthgrader Sarah Rosberry, who placed second in future beginner horsemanship, and Dublin Sells eighth-grader Kaylee Adamek, who placed sixth in future intermediate horsemanship. In the individual competition, Adamek won the future intermediate reining title and Karrer eighth-grader Jordan Medsker finished second in future intermediate horsemanship. “We all jumped up and down and screamed after they announced we won, and then we went and got our picture

taken,” Gute said. Autumn Rose finished second in the zone 5 final March 18-20 in Wilmington, Ohio, but Gute said she and her teammates were confident they could win nationals. Dublin Davis seventhgrader Megan Burian placed fifth in future beginner horsemanship in the zone 5 final to miss qualifying for nationals by two spots. “We knew we could do well,” Gute said. “I drew a good horse who was sweet and put his heart into it. But I would have been fine with any horse that I drew.” •The Autumn Rose Equestrian high school team scored 24 points to finish as reserve champion, one point behind national champion Grier School, snapping its six-year streak of capturing the national title. Autumn Rose had won the zone 5 final by one point. “This was the first time in our seven years competing in the national finals that our high school team hasn’t won,

LACROSSE

and it was hard to lose by one point,” Griffith said. “But I’m still happy because the kids rode extremely well. Luck of the draw plays into it. It’s hard to have a level playing field when you’re drawing from 12 different horses.” Placing first for Autumn Rose in the team competition were Hilliard Davidson freshman Rachel Ninke in junior varsity novice horsemanship, Tristan Rowland of the Cincinnati area in varsity intermediate reining and Plain City’s Savannah Vawter in varsity intermediate horsemanship. Rounding out the scoring in the team competition were Dublin Coffman freshman Colleen Bendig, who placed fifth in j.v. beginner horsemanship, and Dublin Jerome sophomore Ciara Bartholomew, who placed sixth in varsity open horsemanship. Hilliard Bradley senior Jessica Cornwell placed eighth in varsity open reining. “We’re really happy with how we did,” Ninke said.

After placing third in the zone 5 final, Ninke bounced back to win her event at nationals. “I’m usually pretty consistent, so I think (the) zone (competition) was a misunderstanding with the judging,” Ninke said. “There’s always some nerves, but I felt confident I could do well at national. I just did what my coaches taught me to do, and I felt like I got a good draw, a sweet horse.” In the individual competition, Davidson sophomore Jordan Schumacher won the j.v. beginner horsemanship title, Marysville freshman Ashton Clark won the j.v. novice horsemanship title, Rowland won the varsity intermediate reining title and Watterson senior Megan Foley placed second in varsity open reining. “This was a good horse show for us, and we had a good year overall,” Griffith said. ablankenship@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Continued from page C1 As her senior season winds down, Culley finds herself in a familiar situation. “I feel like 50 percent of the team has never played lacrosse before, so it has been an experience,” she said. “A lot of them have played basketball, soccer and other sports, so I try to tell them to bring what they know from those sports to lacrosse. “I know how they feel and try to give them suggestions on how to improve their games.” Ulry believes Culley will develop into a strong college player. “Korinne is going to have to continue to get strong by hitting the weights in the winter and work on conditioning,” he said. “There is so much she still has to learn about the game. In college, everyone there was the best player on their high school team. “But Korinne’s confidence and athletic ability make her a great high school player. She’s a special player and I’m lucky to be able to coach her. She really is the cream of the crop. If she is persistent, I’m certain she will make a phenomenal college player.” shennen@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

When I go into big races, I tell myself that I can achieve my best, and when I won in California at the nationals last summer, it felt amazing and I strive to achieve that feeling again. “I have grown to really love track. I love the freedom you get when you are out on the track. It is so much about you and how you have trained and how you have used the support you have

received. Running is fun and what a chance it has given me to meet people all over the world. It has opened so many doors for me and it has given me the confidence I need to do well in life. Through sports you learn to not get discouraged and to use anything negative that happens for motivation to get better. I love to race and have great respect for everyone that competes with me.” Those who have watched Cordell run this year can tell you that she has plenty of competition — it’s just usually running behind her. I’ll see you at a meet. Larry Larson is a former athletics director at Grandview High School. He can be heard as “Mr. High School Sports” on WTVN 610 AM.

Panthers set for rematch with Wildcats By BRAD EMERINE

The Panthers open the tour-

ThisWeek Community Newspapers nament at Westerville South,

The second meeting this season between the Hilliard Darby and Hilliard Davidson high school softball teams will have more significance than the first on April 18. The Wildcats won that contest 3-0. The rematch between the OCC-Central Division rivals on Friday, May 6, at Darby will be the last contest for both teams before the Division I district tournament begins Tuesday, May 10. “Darby is playing extremely well right now,” Davidson coach Angelo Forte said after the district tournament draw on May 1. “They had a great week last week and we struggled. We need to come back this week and play well to carry that into the tournament.” Darby entered the week having won four of its previous five games to improve to 7-10 overall. Davidson had lost five in a row — on the heels of a fourgame winning streak — to drop to 8-11. “We’re excited and there is a happy environment right now,” Darby coach Erin McClincy said. “I think we feel that we’re peaking at the right time. We’ve got to continue it now. We’ve talked about how every game matters the rest of the way. We’ve got it going, but we don’t want to drop back now right before the tournament. We need to stay focused every pitch, every inning, every day.”

which was 9-7 at the time of the draw. The winner plays in the second round May 12 at fifthseeded Worthington Kilbourne. “I’ve talked to some people about South but really haven’t gotten much information about them,” McClincy said. “With us playing every day this week, I won’t get a chance to see them play, but I plan on sending a scout to watch them. We played Kilbourne well both times in the league. We lost both (4-0 on April 5 and 7-4 on April 20). In the second game, they hit a three-run home run in the third inning, we battled back to trail 4-3 and then we gave up three in their last atbat. We only had two hits in the first game and made four errors, but that was early in the season.” Kilbourne was 13-3 entering the week. The Wolves were seeded behind top-seeded Central Crossing, Gahanna, Groveport and Grove City. The Panthers, who were seeded 21st of 40 teams in the district, beat Upper Arlington 13-3 on April 27. The next day, Darby rallied from a 6-1 deficit to beat Dublin Coffman 7-6. They scored five runs in the sixth and added the winner in the seventh as Tyler Kohli’s single to right field knocked in Cheyenne Hamaker, who had singled and eventually reached third base. “Both Cheyenne and Tyler were frustrated with their level of play earlier in the game, so it was kind of neat that they came through to win it,” McClincy said.

Darby’s Tara Woods delivers a pitch during the Panthers’ 7-6 win over Dublin Coffman on April 28.

“It came at a time when they needed some confidence and I think they got it.” Coffman beat Darby 2-1 on April 29. The Panthers bounced back to beat New Albany 5-4 and Briggs 10-2 on April 30. Darby trailed New Albany 42 heading into the bottom of the seventh, but LeAnn Chumita hit a two-run single to left field to tie the game and came around to score on Angela Suttles’ sacrifice fly. Savannah Pizzurro was 3-for-3. “I think the turning point came when we settled into a lineup,” McClincy said. “We began to get more comfortable on defense and that allowed us to play more aggressive rather than cautious, like we were early in the season when we averaged between five and six errors a game. Our pitching has been very solid and we go three-deep there. The defense has

(103) and Dublin placed eighth (44). Hilliard, which has only girls, did not score. Hilliard will compete in its final regatta of the spring on Saturday, May 7, when it travels to Hamilton for the Burgundy and Blue Youth Regatta. The squad had three boats compete in the Governor’s Cup. The first varsity 8 was fifth (8 minute, 18.67 seconds) in the third heat, the first varsity 4 was fifth (9:54.33) in the third heat and the novice 4 was third (10:11.64) in Flight 1. Senior Paige Holcomb stroked the first varsity 8 and the first varsity 4, and junior Jessica Takos stroked the novice 4. According to coach Jackie Ruetenik, senior Morgan Staric has been a strong leader this spring.

“We had an injury and had to have a coxswain row in two of our races,” Ruetenik said. “We didn’t do well, but I was pleased with their attitudes. Morgan Staric has been really great and really invested. She’s got a great attitude. It helps me a lot that she can kind of direct them and help with what we’re doing in practice.” Because of the wedding photography business that she and her husband, Doug Trieber, run, Ruetenik said she won’t be coaching the team next year.

poll. “We really should’ve won games two and three against Moeller,” Webb said. “I think we’re close to finding our best lineup. Offensively, we’re not making many errors and recently our blocking has gotten much better.” Darby appears to be on its way to an 11th consecutive OCC title, as it was 6-0 in OCC-Ohio Division before facing Davidson. The Panthers play host to Worthington Kilbourne in a league match on Thursday, May 5. •Davidson, ranked seventh in the state poll and second in the East Region, entered the match against Darby at 14-4 overall and 7-1 in the OCC-Ohio. At Centerville, the Wildcats took fourth, losing 25-11, 25-23, 25-15 to Centerville — ranked third in the state poll — in the third-place match. Davidson also lost to secondranked Cincinnati St. Xavier 25-20, 25-20, 25-12 but defeated St. Edward 21-25, 2426, 25-19, 25-22, 15-7. On April 21, the Wildcats defeated Centerville 25-17, 2519, 25-19. “We had never beaten Centerville and I think right there we realized that one, we can play with the best teams in the state, and, we have the mindset that

By JARROD ULREY In the midst of a spring season in which numerous regattas throughout the Midwest were canceled or suspended before completion, the Governor’s Cup Regatta held April 30 on Griggs Reservoir gave central Ohio’s four crews a long-awaited opportunity to get in a full day of rowing competition. Dublin was forced to spend more time than usual preparing the course in the days leading up to the event, but girls coach Gina Crooks believes it was worth it. “Luckily, we got everything done in time because it was scheduled to storm every day last week through last Thursday,” she said. The Cincinnati Junior Rowing Club won its third consecutive Governor’s Cup, scoring 234.5 points as 18 teams scored. Westerville was second (172), Upper Arlington finished fourth

The winner plays in the second round at 10thseeded Teays Valley or Dublin Jerome on May 12. “Newark had just two wins, but people have told me they have some good sticks,” Forte said. “Right now, we just have to concern ourselves with our play.” Davidson was seeded 15th and Newark was the 30th seed. Jerome, which was 2-12 entering the week, was seeded 34th. •Bradley was seeded third behind top-seeded DeSales and Lakewood in the Division II district tournament.

Jaguars girls aim for top spot in home meet By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Hilliard Bradley High School girls track and field coach Thom Nees grudgingly concedes that his team has a shot at winning the Bradley Invitational on Saturday, May 7, after the Jaguars scored 73 points to finish fourth of 11 squads in their meet last year behind Hartley (143), Hilliard Darby (109) and Hilliard Davidson (95). After all, Hartley and Davidson won’t compete in the meet this year, and Bradley scored 120 points to win Darby’s eightteam Panther Invitational on April 8 well ahead of fifth-place Darby (59). Yet, Nees still expects to receive strong competition for the title, especially from Pickerington North, Pickerington Central and Darby. Also competing in the meet are Beechcroft, Brookhaven, Dublin Jerome, Groveport and Newark. St. Charles will take the place of North in the boys meet. “We’re doing pretty well for a second-year program and I think we have the potential to be in contention (for first place), but the competition is going to be really tough,” Nees said. “We want to do well in our invitational but we’re not planning on peaking for it, so we’re going to have a hard week of training this week to get ready for our league and district meets. “Darby has got some good kids and they’re going to be more competitive in this meet with (Caitlyn) Rack back out there running for them. And Pickerington North and Pickerington Central have already beaten us this season, so it will take a great effort from all of our kids to beat any of those teams.” Central scored 91.25 points to place second in the Dublin Coffman Classic on April 16 ahead of sixth-place Bradley (49). On April 29, the Jaguars scored 93.5 points to place third in the nine-team Olentangy Invitational behind North (111) and Olentangy (104). Placing first for Bradley in the Olentangy Invitational were Emily Lebsock in the 100 meters (12.4 seconds), Lebsock, Kayla Malik, Jasmine WatsonWilliams and Sydney Rings in the 400 relay (51.2), and Kiera Anderson, Ciera Allen, Lebsock and Mackenzie Gill in the 1,600 relay (4:10.2). “Pickerington North, Pickerington Central and Darby have some good relays, so it should be interesting to see how our relays match up against those teams, because that will help determine how we finish in the meet,” Nees said. “We’ve done well in the field events and sprints and we’re more balanced than we were last year, but we need a little more depth to beat the top teams.” Darby girls coach Don Seymour said he will use the meet to help his squad prepare for the OCC-Central meet, which will be held May 12 and 14 at

(21.7) and Terell Stanford, Blake Scipio, Darling and Matt Ryan captured the 400 relay (43.5). Agriesti expects Brookhaven and Pickerington Central to be his team’s toughest competition in the Bradley Invitational. The Jaguars finished eighth (49) in Davidson’s 18-team Wildcat Premier on April 2 ahead of 12th-place Central (29) and 14th-place Brookhaven (21). “Brookhaven and Pickerington Central are good,” Agriesti said. “We beat both of them in a tough field, but they will both score better in a smaller field of competition. You’re going to see some good races in the short sprints and sprint relays. This is definitely going to be more of a sprinter’s field than distance meet.” ablankenship@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com
